Pictures can pixellate with cable as well, and signal strength varies from "channel" to "channel" (-14db to +3db on adjacent stations).
Service is provided by folks who, charitibly, can be considered "untrained". (One "solving" a problem by removing the HDMI cable on a hidef tv and replacing it with 75 ohm coax).
The only reason I have not switched to satellite is their insistence on a direct phone connection. We use the "land line" strictly for local calls and cell (Verizon) for on-the-road and long distance.
Our local cable provider is COX and many people who fall for their inflated tier offerings are jokingly referred to as COX suckers. Conversations with the local Attorney General garnered me the address of the City/County contact that is in charge of reveiewing the renewal of the cable contract. Seems as it there are a considerable number of unhappy campers.
BTW...Do all satellite companies charge the $4.99 for each set's converter box?
